Menards® has everything you need to update your electrical load centers. Main breaker load centers protect an entire switchboard and provide spaces to install circuit breakers. Main breaker load centers are available in a variety of styles and amp sizes so you can choose one that will work best for your home, business or other property. It is important to understand the difference between main breaker load centers and main lug load centers. Main breaker load centers have a main breaker switch that can disconnect the entire load center. Main lug load centers do not have a main breaker switch; they only have individual circuit breakers. Therefore, main lug load centers are typically used as electrical distribution panels in addition to main breaker load centers. We also carry a variety of household fuses including plug fuses, glass, ceramic, cartridge and automotive fuses.

Meter sockets are installed on meter socket hubs. Meter sockets are used where electricity enters your property so the power that is utilized can be measured by an electric utility meter. Ground rods protect you and your household from electrical shock. They also keep electronic equipment safe and limit neutral-to-ground voltage. Ground bars are added into a power panel to terminate ground wires and ground lugs are used to attach the ground rod wire to the power panel.
